Hush, little baby

Don’t say a word

Mama’s going to buy to you a mockingbird

And if that mockingbird doesn’t sing

Mama’s going to buy you a diamond ring

And if that diamond ring turns to brass

Mama's going to buy you a looking glass
And if that looking glass gets broken

Mama's going to buy you a billy goat
And if that billy goat doesn't pull

Mama's going to buy you a cart and bull
And if that cart and bull turn over

Mama's going to buy you a dog named Rover
And if that dog named Rover doesn't bark

Mama's going to buy you a horse and cart
And if that horse and cart fall down,

You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town
